Difference Between Website and Portal

In this post, we will understand the difference between website and a portal −

Website

• It is a location on the internet.

• It can be accessed with the help of a URL (uniform resource locator).

• It is generally owned by an organization.

• The user can’t interact with a website.

• It doesn’t necessarily belong to a knowledge domain.

• The information sources don’t have to be updated frequently.

Portal

• It helps provide a single point of access.

• At this access point, the traffic is limited, and is given to a specific set of users only.

• It is user-centric.

• It provides a two-way communication between user and portal.

• It acts as a gateway to a domain of specific knowledge.

• The information sources have to be regularly updated
